To The Girl I Want To Marry My Brother

Not all of us are lucky enough to have a sister.

To The Girl I Want To Marry My Brother
Glad Tidings

Most of my friends are lucky enough in life to have a sister. Someone to go to for advice, or vent to about guys, or just to spend the night with, cleaning out a bottle of wine because, well... it's only Wednesday.

But me, I never had that. I grew up a confused little girl, dressed in the hand me down clothing of two older brothers. I learned about makeup by stealing old palettes from my mom and googling videos on YouTube. And instead of talking about cute boys with my sister, I was playing football against the boys with my brother.

But then one day he came home with a girl. She was beautiful and bubbly, the type of person every girl secretly wishes she could be. She was so kind and open. I immediately felt a relationship growing between us.

Suddenly I found myself asking her for advice. I would tell her about boys. We would go out for drinks and catch up on our lives. She was beginning to become a friend.

We got closer and closer, to the point where we would forget that the common factor that bonded our friendship, was her relationship with my brother.

And she made him so happy, happier than I've ever seen him. For a while, I barely saw the kid. But soon, we became a trio. I had never been so happy to be a third wheel in my life. I was so thankful to become closer with my big brother. What I did not realize was that I was gaining something else as well.


I never had a sister; until I met my brothers girlfriend. So many people complain about their "in-laws." But, I would be lucky to have her as my sister-in-law. I can picture our lives 10 years from now still gossiping like kids, while my brother mans the grill, and we have kids of our own running around the yard as best friends.

And, she would continue to make him happy. She would continue to help him grow. She would bring out his best and always support him. So, to the girl I want to marry my brother, I hope that you do. I hope you guys bring each other everything you need in this world. And I hope that things never change. I hope that one day, I can stand before you guys at your wedding, and thank my brother for finding me a sister.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
